Abstract

In the Critique of Pure Reason, Kant presents the sketch of a theory of practical freedom which is grounded on the idea of transcendental freedom (CPR, B 561) and which, surprisingly, can be proved through experience (CPR, B 830). This is especially noteworthy because transcendental freedom seems to be contrary to [...] all possible experience (CPR, B 831). This paper dissolves the so-called canon problem, according to which Kant's theory of practical freedom in the CPR is inconsistent. It is argued that the concept of experience refers to a subject's ability to become aware of the process of autonomous self-necessitation and thereby constitute herself as an agent. The action, in this case, represents the appearance of intelligible causality and a potential object of experience.
